Tomcat itself is a Java program. There is no special Cygwin JVM, so you'd
need to have a native Windows JVM. Given that, Tomcat works just fine.
However, if you want to run the Unix shell scripts supplied with Tomcat,
you'll need to use the java wrapper scripts that I posted to this list
(Google for "cygwin java_wrapper.sh"), since the JVM, being a native
program, doesn't understand POSIX (Cygwin) paths.

Not that I know of. If you use the wrapper scripts mentioned above, the
regular Unix documentation should apply.
